sad for HK

thehighlander959: I think if I had a choice I will stick with the in-field helicopters, the Bell Choppers are not getting to much bad press.
CSGS: The lion always gets the lion's share of bad press.
Yuh huh, you guys! Funny when the Bell 412 incident happened at GHC last year and the collective snapped in two mid-flight to make an emergency landing at DOH carrying 9 pax + 2 that didn't get much bad press... in helicopter world. It made a front page of a newspaper in the UK though... yet nothing on Google. And still no positive conclusion to my knowledge (anyone else...?) Is it again a kind of "these things happen"? Really? So often? To the same company?

I again feel sorry for you thehighlander959, it's either a AW139, a Bell 412, swim or bateau for you off o'there. still, all are flying again now I believe?


These things are very easily swept under the carpet. A solution must be found. No more incidents at GHC!
